Hello,

Certainly compromised, probably pubstro. "snake server" will be an FTP
server with a obscure banner to confuse you. The "auth server" is an
identd server running, probably, for an XDCC bot. You might try and
compromise it again, to uninstall the ftp/xdcc/identd..but it may well
have been secured.

I know, that the banner was obfuscated, but i thought, it could be 
"standard" banner for worm xyz.
Also, the identd is no real identd, because it simply puts the mentioned 
output on the wire. As far as i know, on identd you have to input
<server port>, <client port> to get a result.
Anyway, thank you all for your help.

regards,
andreas
